Chapter Seventy-Nine: Divorce
Under Qian Wenwen's special care, Zeppelin's workload in the studio has been reduced a lot, and he only has one VIP contestant, and he can basically complete the training in one afternoon. At night, he accompanied Tang Wan'er to walk all over the streets and alleys of Beijing. Tang Wan'er thanked him for his company and apologized for delaying his work. But what Zeppelin didn't say was that he was the one who needed more company.
Every time he saw Lin Zhiyi and Qian Wenwen interacting intimately in the studio, he felt better when he thought of Tang Wan'er.
When working, he deliberately kept a distance from Lin Zhiyi. But just by observing him from afar, I feel that he is not the same as before. When talking about music with the students, there was no light in his eyes.
"What the hell is wrong with that guy?"
Before the official start of the show, Lin Zhiyi took a VIP student to practice the accompaniment again.
"At this quasi-level, you still have to play and sing on stage?" Lin Zhi also despised him in his heart, but he still looked very patient on his face.
He himself took the initiative to cut off all financial resources from Lin Xuedong. I also stopped studying because I didn't want to practice law anymore. rented a house outside Beijing's Fifth Ring Road, and the reason why I agreed to Qian Wenwen's invitation to come here was mostly for the sake of livelihood.
He never thought that his parents would really divorce, at least until he learned about Lin Xuedong and Lisa's cheating incident, the home in his eyes has always been a model of happiness. Although parents sometimes argue about work, most of the time they respect each other.
In Lin Zhiyi's impression, the eyes of his mother looking at his father were still full of love and admiration most of the time.
But the mother's attitude towards divorce this time was so resolute that she didn't even come to ask her son's opinion.
The two of them gave full play to their professional advantages and calculated the ownership of every cent of the family's property. Lin Zhiyi is glad that he is an adult and no longer has to get involved in the fight for property.
But in this divorce, it is the father whose reputation is more affected. In Zhucheng, the news spread quickly, and the pride of the legal profession turned out to be such a sven scum, as the saying goes, the tree fell and scattered, the wall fell and everyone pushed it, and the partners who usually had differences with Lin Xuedong proposed to let Lin Xuedong be dismissed as a partner. And Lisa also left this public humiliation field early and went to another city.
For a lawyer, a good reputation is as important as life.
Lin Xuedong's reputation this time stinks to the point of stinky ditch. Without a career, he can only fight more frantically for the Lin family's property.
Lin Zhi didn't return to Zhucheng, he kept imagining Lin Xuedong's embarrassed appearance in his mind, and he felt a little funny. Isn't it tiring to think of the upright gentleman he has pretended to be for so many years?
The performance on stage was gorgeous and empty, and Lin Zhi also sat under the stage, immersed in his own world.
It is naturally sad that the Lin family has become like this, but the invisible burden that is pressing on him, he can finally let go. But after letting go of this burden, he felt an inexplicable emptiness again.
Music, too, seems to have lost its appeal to him.
Qian Wenwen was in the mentor's seat, publishing the lines written by the director team, and the VIP student had just finished performing, and the mentors took turns to praise. The fans invited to the scene shouted louder than ever.
He suddenly remembered that when he performed the first song on stage with the members of the Hot Wheels Band for the first time in Zhiyuan Middle School, the audience in the audience, the surging from the heart, could not be arranged no matter what.
Back at the rental house in the suburbs, it was early in the morning. The radiator in the room is broken, and the landlord said that he will repair it when it is cold, and Lin Zhiyi said, then the rent is cheaper now.
The landlord said, then I'll fix it right away.
But Lin Zhi also lived for more than two months, the rent was not cheap, and he did not see the landlord come to find someone to repair.
In this world, there are probably only creatures like humans, who can do things differently. And only humans are creatures who will use lies to maintain relationships.
And these relationships have been created by them for thousands of years, with great effort and every possible effort, and what is even more ridiculous is that human beings have come up with millions of words of various legal provisions to maintain them.
However, if the two want to maintain a relationship from the bottom of their hearts, even millions of laws can't separate them, and if they are really cornered, they will die together. He thought of Yang Xichen and Zou Ke, who died in Thailand, for whom he once felt sorry, but now he felt that at least they were truly happy before they died.
In this world, how many people live like the walking dead, and they feel happy because they don't really understand what happiness is.
The more Lin Zhiyi thought like this, the more he couldn't extricate himself.
He thought of Liu Qingyuan, who he had once met, who was suffering from cancer but died in the river. The pack of cigarettes in his pocket was soaked by the river.
Lin Zhiyi seemed to understand that it was not cancer that killed him, but himself.
Only in this way did he feel that he was a living being.
"Knock knock!" Suddenly, there was a knock on the old-fashioned wooden door.
Lin Zhiyi's mind was still stuck in boundless nonsense, and he didn't react for a while.
"Knock knock! Knock knock! The knock on the door was a little hurried, and he ran slowly to open it.
"Who?" He didn't tell anyone else that he lived here, including Qian Wenwen. But he didn't bother to peek through the cat's eye and opened the door directly. What is there to plunder about my current self?
Lin Zhi didn't see the other party's appearance clearly, and the person who came hugged him, so strong that he was a little out of breath.
"Wow......" Suddenly, the man began to cry again, "You bastard, you made me so hard." ”
This girl's voice and body shape are obviously, "Ding Yi? ”
"Can you let go first, I'm almost out of breath." Lin Zhi also pleaded.
"Oh oh......" Ding Yi hurriedly let go of his arm and wiped the pear blossoms on his face again.
"Come in." Looking at Ding Yi's pitiful appearance, Lin Zhiyi still relented and invited her into the house to drink a glass of water. He didn't want this Pure Land to be disturbed.
"Are you really not coming to class?"
Lin Zhi did not return to Ding Yi's question, but continued to lie on the bed by himself.
"I've heard about your parents. But you can't beat yourself up for it. I can help you, and no matter what happens, I'll be on your side. If your father has nowhere else to go, I can even beg my father to admit him to his office in Beijing, if he wants to. ”
Ding Yi almost knelt in front of Lin Zhiyi's bed, but he still looked like he was ignoring.
He turned to the side, faced her, and said something inconsequential,
"If I had nothing, would you still love me?"
Ding Yi nodded frantically almost subconsciously, "Love." From the first time I saw you, I fell in love with you. ”
"And if I were an ugly bastard, you'd love me too?"
Lin Zhiyi deliberately squinted one eye and tilted one side of his mouth to the corner of his mouth, making an ugly appearance like a clown.
"Hahaha." Ding Yi was amused, "Then it's hard to say." ”
"You're really honest."
Ding Yi stroked Lin Zhiyi's crushed hair, "I just like the way you look now." ”
"What about me when I'm old?"
"That's for later."
Lin Zhi also didn't ask any more questions, it turned out that Ding Yi had always seen it very clearly.
"It's my turn to ask you, I haven't figured it out, what do you like about Yuan Shanshan?"
"Her singing."
"And if she couldn't sing, would you still like her?"
"I love her." Lin Zhiyi replied without thinking, "Every time I am lonely, I can't help but think of her." ”
Ding Yi knew what he was referring to.
"And now? Are you still lonely? Ding Yi put his lips to Lin Zhiyi's, and this time, he did not resist.
Her tongue invaded Lin Zhiyi's territory inch by inch, making him unable to guard against it.
She couldn't wait to take off her clothes and put his hand on the pride on her chest, where there was an irresistible tenderness.
"Do you like it?" As she spoke, her body had already arrived at Lin Zhiyi's bed.
Her eyes looked directly at him, and even if Lin Zhi didn't speak, she used her hands to explore the answer she wanted.
"I'm the one who is with you now."
Lin Zhi also completely disarmed and surrendered, he needed to be comforted alive to tell him that the relationship between men and women is not beyond marriage, property, reputation, and divorce, but the most primitive love.
He broke free from all the shackles of himself and was completely immersed in love. Until, use the last ounce of strength of the body.
When he regained consciousness again, Ding Yi was already sitting by the window, and he realized that outside the window was a plane tree, and the leaves on the tree had begun to turn slightly yellow. After autumn, it is winter, and he has to call the landlord as soon as possible to ask him to change the radiator.
In Beijing's winter, you can't survive without heating.
"Wake up." Ding Yi playfully came over and kissed him on the cheek. She wanted to continue yesterday's warmth, but was stopped by Lin Zhiyi.
"What's wrong?"
"Can you buy me a piano?"
"Okay." Ding Yi agreed with a smile, "As long as you are happy, I will give you whatever you want." ”
Lin Zhiyi thought that in her heart, she was already her person through and through.
